Well, what do you know? Smallville has been renewed for a 10th season. Here’s the scoop:

“The early pickup hardly comes as a surprise given how well the show has been performing in its new Friday time slot. As The CW points out, the series has ‘dramatically improved’ the network’s performance on the night in all major demo categories, including adults 18-34 (up 67 percent), men 18-34 (up 200 percent), adults 18-49 (up 75 percent), men 18-49 (183 percent), and total viewers (74 percent).

There’s no word if season 10 will be the show’s last.”
